    This document discusses the organization of multicellular organisms. It describes the four main types of tissues - muscle, epithelial, connective and nervous tissues. It defines organs as groups of tissues that work together to perform a specific function, like the stomach. Organ systems are groups of organs that work together to perform a common task, like the digestive system. Plants also have tissues and organs arranged differently than animals. The earliest cells on Earth were simple prokaryotes that later formed colonial organisms where cells worked together for survival, like Volvox. Animals, plants and fungi evolved from colonial organisms.

    Tissues, Organs, and Organ


    Systems
    A. Tissues
    Tissues groups of cells that
    carry out a specific function.

    Types of Tissues:
    1. Muscle tissue causes movement.
    2. Epithelial tissue sheets of
    closely-packed cells that form
    surface coverings.
    3. Connective tissue holds
    tissues/organs together.
    4. Nervous tissue transmits
    messages back and forth between
    the tissue and brain.

    B. Organ
    Organ several types of tissues
    that interact to form a specific
    function.
    The Stomach is an example of an
    organ.

    C. Organ Systems
    Organ System a group of
    organs that work together to
    perform a common task.
    The Digestive system is an
    example of an organ system

    D.

    Plants also have tissues and organs, but their


    arrangement
    differs from that of animals.

    1. A dermal tissue system forms


    the outer layer of a plant.
    2. A ground tissue system makes
    up the bulk of the roots and stems.
    3. A vascular tissue system
    transports water throughout the
    plant.
    4. The four plant organs are: 1)
    roots, 2) stems, 3) leaf, and
    4)flower.

    Colonial Organization
    a. Step 1: fossils suggest the earliest cells
    on Earth were simple prokaryotes similar
    to some present day bacteria.
    b. Step 2: Colonial Organisms several
    organisms of the same species working
    together for survival.

    Volvox is a perfect example; a hollow Volvox sphere contains 500


    to 60,000 cells, each of which continues to exist individually but carry
    out specific functionsthat benefit the whole colony.

    C. Step 3: animals, plants, and fungi likely evolved from different


    varieties of colonial organisms hundreds of years ago. Cells
    became less capable of functioning by themselves as multicellular
    colonies became the norm.
